Except the bombardier issue had literally nothing to do with regulation and to claim it did is misleading. That was 100% Trump with his tarriff BS. The FAA and safety regulations played 0 part in it. We could have literally an unregulated airline industry and it wouldn't have changed the bombardier situation.
